    rehabilitation providers whilst at the same time recognising the employee's right
    of choice;

3. Abbe Corrugated Pty Ltd will provide cooperation and assistance in relation to
    any rehabilitation program and will implement reasonable workplace or
    workstation modifications recommended by a rehabilitation provider;

4. Rehabilitation providers will be provided access to Abbe Corrugated Pty Ltd for
    job assessment and case discussion purposes;

5. The Return To Work Coordinator will carefully monitor return to work employees
    to ensure that the injury is not aggravated;

    this policy.
